Hello, my lovelies! How is May treating you? At my house, it’s been crazy busy and it feels like I only a few minutes to catch my breath! Trying to get the girls to the finish line with their grades and keeping up with the end of school activities, I feel like I’m living in a crazy world! With that being said, you still need to eat, and what better time to treat yourself to something incredible!

I have never kept a lot of treats around the house because if they’re at the house, I know I’m going to eat them but I do love to bake!

Chocolate Chocolate Chip Bread

Ingredients:

Bread:

1 1/2 cups flour

1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 cup applesauce

1/3 cup melted butter

1 cup brown sugar

2 eggs

2 teaspoon vanilla

2/3 cup sour cream or plain Greek yogurt

1 1/2 cups chocolate chips

Glaze:

1 1/2 cups chocolate chips

5 Tablespoons butter

1 /14 cup heavy cream

2 Tablespoons corn syrup

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9 x 5-inch bread pan and set it aside.
In a bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa, salt, baking powder, and baking soda.
In a different bowl, combine together the applesauce, oil, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla, and sour cream.
Add the dry ingredients to the applesauce mixture and then the chocolate chips. Stir until the batter is just combined, make sure not to over mix!
Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan and bake for 45 to 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs and not batter.
Let the bread cool in the pan for 5 to 10 minutes before running a knife gently around the edges and turning it out onto a cooling rack.
Glaze: In a small pan, combine the cream and corn syrup and over medium heat bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly.
Add the chocolate chips and butter and let stand for 1 minute, and then stir until melted and smooth. Let cool to room temperature, about an hour.
